for the applicable Warranty Period. The “Warranty Period” is that period of time during which this Limited 

Warranty is effective, and such period begins on the invoice date issued by SSLLC for the Product, and continues

Product or any part or component of a nonconforming Product necessary in SSLLC’s discretion to make such 

Product conforming. Any transportation charges, labor for removing, reinstalling the Product or part, and/or costs

responsibilities hereunder. SSLLC’s duty to perform under this limited warranty may be delayed, at SSLLC’s 

sole option, until SSLLC has been paid in full for all products purchased by the Warranty Holder. No such delay 

will extend the Warranty Period. If SSLLC does not make such repair or replacement, SSLLC’s liability for 

damages on account of any claimed nonconformity will in no event exceed the purchase price of the Product in

by anyone other than SSLLC. This Limited Warranty will not apply to any Product that has been subjected to 

improper or abnormal use of the Product. SSLLC has no responsibility to repair or replace any Product or 

component thereof manufactured by another party, but SSLLC will assign, to the extent assignable, to the 

Warranty Holder any manufacturers’ warranty that applies to products and components not manufactured by
